Butter and line bottom and sides of a 1/2 sheet
pan (12"x16")
In a bowl whisk together all dry ingredients. In a large heavy saucepan heat
honey and maple sugar over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove pan from
heat and stir in liquids (juices and rum). Stir in flower mixture and cool dough
for 5 minutes.
With floured hands press 4 lbs of dough evenly into a 1/2 sheet pan.

in pan. Invert baked dough onto cutting board and cut into 2 by 1 1/2 inch
rectangles.
